Mini Coffin With Surprise
« on: September 10, 2010, 09:01:22 am »
Decided to make a mini coffin for Halloween. LOL

 :o  :o  :o

Don't laugh at me
Because I have no skin
You don't know where I have been

Six foot under
That's where I am found
With all these worms
Crawling round and round

The worms crawl in
The worms crawl out,
The worms play Pinochle on my snout,

My eyes fell in
My teeth decayed
So that is the end
Of a horrible day.

Skelly

For Merlin - I just did an urn for a lady here and the local cemetary told me that the urn had to be a minimum of 112 cu in for the ashes.  I did my design so the interior met that.

Thanks everyone.

Marcellarius: I wrote the first two verses of the poem, the last two verses come from an old folklore.

jimbo: I made a little paper scroll to put in the coffin.

Merlin: I made the pattern and Skelly. I made the pattern in Inkscape so I can make it any size I want.

Mark: The coffin is six inches long.
